2000 Taurus Wagon - Retro Fit Lap Shoulder Belts...

Does anyone have any experience with retro fitting a lap shoulder belt
harness, much like the one at this link:
http://www.ezonpro.com/products/familyVehicle/86yHarness.shtml

My daughter has grown out of her car seat and is now sitting in the
center seat of the wagon's back seat; my two sons right and left. The
center seat is a lap only belt as opposed to the lap shoulder on the
right and left seats. I would like to install a lap shoulder belt for
the center seat.
Are there anchors on the rear wagon deck to which to secure the straps
as shown in this product? Is there a better option for me?
I would ask anyone who can help to please email me.
Thank you,
Lou, NY

Your daughter is already sitting in the safest seat in the car.
I don't know if you will gain any safety advantage in getting a shoulder
belt for her. If you that concerned about safety, get a car with curtain
airbags that protect people against side impacts. And make sure she
wears a helmet when she rides her bike, skates, etc.

Lou, the Taurus is already about the safest car there is, especially in
that size & price segment, and the rear center is the safest position.
For the transition in your growing family, I would recommend the Britax
LapTop:

If you can find one. They are top quality, & if you buy one & keep it
clean, it will sell for what you bought it for. We had two new ones,
one from a store(their last one in stock) & one from the store's
website, just
around the time they were discontinued.
They are especially desirable to the classic car & convertible crowd.
